Superconductors conduct electricity with nearly no resistance that can make strong magnetic fields. But widespread use is mainly limited to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRIs). That is because conventional superconductors must be cooled to extremely low temperatures similar to outer space. On earth, cooling uses liquid helium which is expensive and difficult.Three Innovations with Superconductors and Magnetism:1) Reinforced High Temperature Superconductors (HTS). HTS use cheap liquid nitrogen for cooling promising cheap superconductivity. But after 35 years and > 200,000 research papers, HTS are still not widely used because they are brittle and break easily. I was at Cambridge University as a ¨mature¨ (i.e. old fart) Visiting Researcher in one of my personal interests: African Village Electrification. At a lecture on solar panels, Dr. Mark Ainslie told me about Cambridge's Bulk Superconductivity Group. I had an idea, the Group's Head, Prof. David Cardwell (now a University Pro Vice Chancellor - not surprising given his leadership skills) said ¨let's try it out¨ . . . it worked! The breakthrough (https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1361-6668/ab7ec4/pdf) should lead to practical superconductor use beyond MRIs. LAU Superconductors was formed to further R&D at a laboratory offered to us by University of Wisconsin (Eau Claire). 2) Innovation ¨lightening¨ struck again a few years later with Superconductors in Space. Though space is cold enough (4°K) for superconductivity. But Superconductors in Space @ Ambient Temperature has never been tried. The superconductors needed in space for instrumentation and infrared telescopes are cooled with mechanical coolers. We innovated a new magnetic coilgun which allows objects to be launched in space without rocket fuel using solar power and superconductors. Superconductor magnetism can also stop moving objects in space. Together these allow the ¨Holy Grail¨ of missile defense called Boost-Phase Missile Interception. Game Theory suggests this should lead to the obsolescence of strategic nuclear missiles. This innovation has been endorsed by the U.S. Missile Defense Agency. An awareness Media Strategy (part of the Game Theory) will be launched when grants have been officially awarded. We are forming another laboratory in Huntsville, AL.3) Recent innovation: China has a undetectable Hypersonic Glide Vehicle (HGV) which traveled 10,000km. It can sink aircraft carriers and deliver nuclear warheads. We have innovated an enhancement for Hypersonic Flight at our Huntsville lab which should help us build one.

World
Thought of a breakthrough in High Temperature Superconductors, and formed a company to research and develop its application. This led to a series of more innovations which should lead to a) the end of strategic nuclear missiles and b) Hypersonic Glide Vehicles comparable to China's among other applications.

Cameroon Inc (www.camerooninc.com) is a social enterprise which collects gold from rural villages for their development under prudent standards for safety, children, and environmental stewardship.
Kong Village, Center Province, Cameroon, Africa
I am an Elder of the Tikar tribe from Kong village in the Centre Province of Cameroon in Africa. The Tikar are a declining tribe from whom many African-Americans are descended. They were once driven from their northern fishing grounds by mounted slave raiders to the marginal lands the Tikar now occupy in a transition zone from savannah to jungle.

Cambridge, United Kingdom
Restarted a PhD program for the project described below in quotes. Opened my mouth a bit too often about other projects (ahhhh . . . t'is wonderful to be back in the land of intellectual discovery and freedom!). After only about a month, got "kicked upstairs" (or I should say I hope it is upstairs?) to Visiting Researcher starting 1 April 2016. Much more freedom to do research on different topics, no tuition fees. Sounds like one form of heaven on earth."Launching a new social enterprise to bring sustainable solar power to rural villagers. The project has research implications in the use of existing community structures and technology advances to address problems of low capital, low income and remote access typically found in poor rural areas. Field tests will start in Cameroon then spread to other areas."
Southeast Asia
Leading Assets United was started in the midst of the 1998 Asian Economic Crisis to invest in Asia ex-Japan. After a good year in 2007, profits were returned to investors and the company was sold. Always try to leave on a high note!
Activities and Societies: Started researching an idea in bringing electricity to rural African villages with solar panels. Ended up making.
Activities and Societies: Attendance due to the grace of a Marshall Scholarship from the Government and People of the United Kingdom..
Activities and Societies: summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, Tau Beta Pi, etc., etc. Loved science! Thought it was a wondeful way.
The same school as President Barack Obama (as well as China`s first President Sun Yat-sen over a hundred years before). But he (President.
It looked like I was good with the numbers, but pretty lousy at everything else. Began to think that science was the way one could make.
